RIO DE JANEIRO - The far-right governor of Rio de Janeiro state, who has likened drug dealers to terrorists and Nazis while advocating snipers in helicopters to shoot them dead, said on Tuesday “it is only a matter of time” before he becomes president of Brazil.

“Without doubt,” Witzel said, when asked by foreign journalists in Rio if he believed he would be president in the future. He did not specify when he might run. But the number of killings by Rio’s police officers has risen, up nearly 20 percent in the first five months of this year. Critics argue Witzel’s hard-line rhetoric has given cops an implicit permission to kill.

Rio sounds copper warning from Mongolian steppeThe miner's flagship Oyu Tolgoi expansion will be up to 30 months late, and could cost as much as a third more than planned. It’s a fresh blow to a project that has been bruised by local politics. The latest snag is a reminder of why the red metal has become so hard to dig up. ClaraMarquesRTR Thanks for the link. It answers the question of whether or not the British Columbia government is responsible for the copper warning. I know this is the case, but I think there are some valid ways to resolve it.

AOC: 'No matter what the president says, this country belongs to you'Rep. Ocasio-Cortez in response to Pres. Trump's racist tweets: 'I want to tell children across this country is that no matter what the president says, this country belongs to you.' Good message Unfortunately, the 6 states that will decide the election will disagree and vote their racist entitlement of feeling this country is about whites and only for whites... they are wrong- but they will decide the presidency We stole this country from Native Americans fair and square. The only problem with that is Trump never said it didn't belong to its citizens. He only said if they don't like it here they can leave. How is that racist? Exactly what word or phrase as said, is racist? Don't interpret the words but explain which ones he said that are racist!
